Heading into next week’s trade deadline, here are three players the Las Vegas Raiders should think about trading for in a playoff push.

When you are 5-2, sitting atop your divisional standings with a full week of rest ahead, the consensus would not be to make a move. However, in life, you either stay comfortable or improve to become great. This is a spot the Las Vegas Raiders are in.

The Silver and Black are in a good spot, they can continue their success with this current group, or go from being good to possibly great, all with the signal of one important player. Remember, this is a team that has defied the odds this season, have dealt with their head coach resigning, as well as navigated a tough early-season schedule.

There are a few weak spots on this roster, and there are more than a few eligible candidates at these positions that should be available before the November 2nd deadline date. Teams are already out of the playoff race and could be sellers, so the Raiders may end up being buyers to bolster the roster.

We will take a look at a few that could help the Raiders immediately.
